Description:There is some concern at present that Hawaii's nearshore marine resources are being depleted by fishing and collecting pressures. One means of combating this apparent depletion is by the establishment of additional marine conservation districts like Hanauma Bay and Kealakekua Bay. If established, these areas could also serve as natural educational and recreational sites or marine parks and could be used for scientific study. A poll was conducted through mailed questionnaires and interviews with shoreline users to assess public opinion on marine conservation districts. Of the 1722 responses from the survey, over 69 percent was favorable toward the establishment of additional marine conservation districts with only 16 percent opposed.
